Basic Hydraulics of a Diaphragm Valve: This seminar reviews the basic operating principles of a hydraulically operated, diaphragm actuated control valves. Examples are given for applications requiring on/off and modulating control and how to determine which Cla-Val valve model will best meet particular system requirements. Flow characteristics and valve sizing guidelines are also discussed. The most basic of Cla-Val's seminar offerings, this topic is recommended as an introduction to each of our product specific seminars. - Schedule a Seminar -
Altitude and Level Control Valves are typically used in applications to control high water levels in reservoirs. Designed for accurate and repeatable level control, Cla-Val Altitude and Level Control Valves provide drip-tight, positive shut-off.

Surge Control: This comprehensive seminar discusses the methods operators can employ to protect their pipelines and equipment from damage and operating inefficiencies caused by surge. The seminar will also provide a brief overview of SurgeView, Cla-Val's surge analysis software. SurgeView assists specifying engineers in the selection of the Cla-Val product best suited to prevent and relieve surges in a given distribution system. The software plots the results of the transient in real time and "animates" the transient waves over the period of the transient event.
